The original UTAWPL 1 was published in print only. In 2008, the original files were converted to PDFs for online presentation. The material is presented in these PDFs with the same pagination and text. (One or two obvious typographical errors were corrected, and language data has been converted to Unicode.)

Our collective hat is off to Susan C. Herring for locating the (very old) digital files and supplying them to the department.
